I thought Morrow looks somewhat lost and slow last night, especially on the rush. And a few times he was not expecting that pass from Geno. He did have some nice opportunities to score. I think he will "get it" soon enough. I think he was standing in front of the net more out of "I don't know what to do, so I will go here" than it was his actual game plan. Geno and Neal were buzzing about 100 miles an hour in the offensive zone last night. I think as he gets comfortable, he will have more fluidity to his game similar to Kunitz.

Murray look slow as molasses trying to get back on D a few times. And made a couple errors looking for that hit to woo the crowd. But, pretty solid all evening. The forwards, especially line 1, made it easy on the d-men last night with their puck ownership. The shots from Murray were a very pleasant surprise. He's got a friggin cannon!

Even if Iginla would sign for only 4M per year and Morrow & Dupuis would sign for 2.5M per year,its impossible to keep them all.Unless we dont sign Cooke,Kennedy,trade Glass.. But Cookie I would like to keep. I think its reality that we sign Duper,Brendan and Cooke.

Pretty much my feelings.

This team, currently constructed would command a cap hit of 74 million. Lol, they would need to shed 10 million of that.

The only way the Pens sign Iginla is if something goes horribly wrong with keeping Letang, IMO.

I think they could keep both Morrow and Iginla, but both of them would have to leave some money on the table to stay, and they'd have to let a couple other guys go, such as trading Niskanen to open up cap space and parting ways with Dupuis. Letang factors in heavily too, as he could be traded this summer like Staal was if they can't agree on an extension. Whether or not they win the Cup also figures to factor in. It's all too early to say, but in the end they probably will be able to retain a pretty good chunk of the current roster, but not all of it.
